The ghazal

Although to the city - admonisher , easy this matter becometh not

So long as hypocrisy and deceit , he practiseth , Musulman , he becometh not *** Learn profligacy and practise liberality . For not such a great matter is it ,

That wine , a mere animal drinketh not and man becometh not . *** The the great name of God doeth its work . O heart be happy be not denier of the effects of The great name

For , by fraud and deceit , the infidel Div , Musulman becometh not . *** That it may be worthy of bounty , the pure essence is necessary

If not , every worthless stone and clod , the precious ; pearl and the coral becometh not . *** I teach love and hence my hope , that this noble art of love

Like other arts , the cause of disappointment in the attainment of my object becometh not . *** Last night , He spake saying To - morrow , I give thee thy heart's desire .

O God devise a means , whereby regretful by breaking his promise he becometh not . *** From God , I seek a good disposition for thy nature ,

So that again , distressed by thee , our heart becometh not . *** A sorrowful one , who , from the physician the murshid keepeth secret his pain of desire

Doubtless , capable of a remedy , his pain becometh not . *** Whoever , from the head of with all his soul , trembleth before idols lovely women

Without trouble of doubt worthy of the Kuran , his body becometh not . *** Hafiz So long , as lofty resolution is not the atom's

Seeker of the fountain of the gleaming sun , it becometh not . ***
